Time to act

Australians angry with the Singaporean Government's determination to proceed with the barbaric act of hanging Van Nguyen might want to consider ways and means of registering their protest. I suggest you might consider ending your relationship with companies such as Optus (primarily owned by SingTEL) and Singaporean airlines. I will be cancelling my mobile account with Optus and have advised the Singaporean High Commission I will never travel to Singapore again, although I have been a regular visitor since the early 70s. It may be just a token in the overall scheme of things but if enough people act Singapore will get the message.

Let them know we are angry and we will not tolerate this barbarism.

You can contact the Prime Minister of Singapore directly.

Absolutely right. Dr Chee Soon Juan, last night on Lateline, used very harsh words in condemnation of his government's death penalties. It's crazy for Australians to think they need to stay out of this for reasons of diplomatic politeness.
